Miers Was Picked Because She is the "Right" Religion

"To persuade the right to embrace Ms. Miers's selection
despite her lack of a clear record on social issues,
representatives of the White House put Justice Hecht
on at least one conference call with influential
social conservative organizers on Monday to talk about
her faith and character. "

This says alot about what's wrong with our system. She has no judicial, or philosophical, or constitutional record to speak of, so they try to sell her to their supporters with this crap about her being the "right" religion -- in other words, this all about outlawing abortion.

What's really twisted here is they want someone with very specific personal views, and they want her to impose those views, BECAUSE they are her personal views.

In other words, they want her to legislate from the bench, which is what they constantly say they DON'T want. That's truly screwed up.
